Brown Goldring Lettuce (Organic)
Item Details
The Royal Horticultural Society presented this midseason-maturing romaine heading lettuce with the prestigious award of merit in 1923. Red-green leaves are thick, tender, and sweet, striking all the right notes in the garden and on the salad plate. Plants reach 8-10" tall by 12-16" wide; leaves measure 8-9" long by 4-6" wide at maturity.
Donated to Seed Savers Exchange in the early 1980's by member and Exchange lister Stan Heymann, this variety was likely developed by Thomas Goldring and Sons, a pre-World War company of seedsmen, fruiterers, and florists based in Sussex.
